Do you like baked ZIti?

Question

How do you make yours?

Answer 1

ziti, sauce, some veggies topped with some cheese and bread crumbs

Answer 2

No, I like Lasgna

Answer 3

Ingredients:

1 Lb ziti

1 lb ground beef

1 cup shredded mozzarella

1 16 0z jar Tomato sauce

1 can oregano and basil diced tomato's

fry up ground meat

Then boil the ziti

Once that is done I mix both items with one large container of ricotta, about a 3/4 cup of mozzarella and 1 can of basil and oregano diced tomatoes and 1/2 jar of tomato sauce.

In a 9x9 pan I spread a light coating of the tomato sauce on the bottom to prevent the ziti from sticking then add the mixed ziti. Spread out evenly. Then top with the remaining tomato sauce and sprinkle 1/2 of mozzarella on top.

Bake at 350 for 45 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbley.

Everyone raves about my baked ziti (its the diced tomato's that does the trick!)

Answer 4

Yes I do but I don't make mine..I have a sitter that makes it.. Yum!

Answer 5

Yes! I make sauce from scratch, I add veggies and bake with whatever cheese is in the fridge.

Answer 6

yes, but what does this have to specifically with Boston?  Is Boston the only place to get baked Ziti?

Answer 7

I love baked ziti and I use a recipe similar to the person who wrote the whole recipe down.  I would like to recommend another dish- spaghetti pie.  I got the recipe from Cooks.com and it received rave reviews from my family.  I cooked it in my Massachusetts kitchen, so I guess it somehow qualifies under the "Boston - Eating-out" category on Y!A. :)

Answer 8

i start with homemade sauce i put ground round and Italian sausage in it too   get  the noodles  ricotta cheese mozzarella  start with layers noodles sauce cheese  repeat top it off with shredded cheese  cook for 45 mins on 325

Answer 9

love it. important to have a lot of red sauce so it doesnt dry out when you bake it.

Answer 10

Baked Ziti is quite good, as a mix between the flavors of Spaghetti and Lasagna it makes for a rich red sauced pasta to go along side a salad and some fresh Italian bread.

I find a simple yet tasteful recipe to be:

Ziti noodles

Spaghetti Sauce (weather canned or home-made)

Three Cheeses (i would recommend provolone, mozzarella, and parmesan)

Some Onion (optional)

and a bit of oregano for a more Italian flavor

Answer 11

yes
